Let's use an example
Say we had two lines P and Q. If P has slope 2/5, then Q must have slope -5/2 in order for P and Q to be perpendicular.
Note how -5/2 is the negative reciprocal of 2/5. In other words, you flip the fraction and the sign to go from either slope.
Another thing to notice is that the two slopes multiply to -1. This is true for any pair of perpendicular lines as long as neither line is vertical.
Answer:
Equation of line is:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let equation of line be y=mx+c
where m is the slope of line and c is the y-intercept
Line passes through (2, -1/2) and has a slope of 3
i.e. (x,y)=(2, -1/2) and m=3
i.e.
So, equation of line is:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
this equation is written in y = mx + b form
m = slope
b = the y intercept
so if we rearrange the equation to
y = -23x -6
the slope is -23
the y intercept is (0, -6)
Answer:
Here's The Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x²+2x+4 = 4
I'm Sorry If I Get This Wrong.
I think the answer would be 19m+2
Hope this helps
